Subject: Third line forcing notification lodged by The Gordon/Frost
Organisation Pty Ltd on 26 November 2014 [SEC=UNCLASSIFIED]
HP TRIM Record Number: D14/149705
Security Classification: UNCLASSIFIED
Dear
Ms Owen
I refer to the third line forcing notification lodged with the
Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (the ACCC) by The Gordon/Frost
Organisation Pty Ltd on 26 November 2014. It has been allocated the
registration number N98001. The notification and this email will be placed on
the ACCC’s public register which is available on the ACCC’s website.
The protection
from legal action provided by the notification commences automatically 14 days
after the lodgement date, unless the ACCC objects.
On the basis of the information that you have provided, and that the parties will
disclose all relevant terms and conditions to customers, the ACCC does not
object to the notification at this time.
If at any time circumstances change, or the ACCC receives further
information, such that it is satisfied that the public benefits from the third
line forcing conduct do not outweigh the public detriments, the ACCC may remove
the protection provided by the notification.
Please contact Jaime Martin on 03 9290 1477 or by email to adjudication@accc.gov.au if you have any
questions about this matter.
Regards
Dr Richard Chadwick
